I was listening to a former border sector chief on Theo Vons podcast recently.

He was describing how under Trump it was not just the wall which helped agents but all of the tech and surveillance included with the border funding.

Crossings at 400,000 a year under Trump and now over 3.4 million under Biden

He went on to say how the Biden admin is selling border wall materials onsite for scrap metal to get rid of it. Literally new steel beams and support structures that cost us hundreds of thousands being sent to recycling yards for 6 cents per pound just to get rid of it

The part where Mexico will pay for the wall still does not register in the heads of liberals.

He made them pay for the wall by forcing them to put 18,000 Mexican officers at the border on their dime which prevented hundreds of thousands from crossing. But but but the mainstream media won’t ever tell you that part.

This is mind blowing. Biden should be impeached and tried for treason.

Biden could drop a nuke on Baltimore and nothing would happen, also he would still secure 90% of the black vote to save democracy.

If Trump actually had a plan for immigration and for the economy, I sure as hell would listen. If he took Congress to task and got the budgets less red, I would think hes one of our better leaders.

No plans. Nothing. He has no plans beside vague blurbs.

That is still a huge number and not sustainable and should not be allowed. That’s failure any way you look at it.

There's one way to easily identify all of the successful ventures of the Trump administration: look at which Trump policies were ended by Biden executive order in the first two weeks after Trump was fraudulently robbed of office.

The border wall construction and preservation was one of those things, and it was among the very first.

What party killed the border bill enough said now it’s a free for all . There will never be a border bill because the democrats will vote against one to spite the republicans.

It would have been much more successful if the Dems in Congress had agreed to funding. He had to circumvent money.
The Dems always wanted the border open.

No, you wouldn’t. You’d find something else to complain about. The sign of your ignorance is supporting a guy that can’t complete a full sentence without reading it. It is going to take nothing short of one of these illegals to rape or murder one of your family members, and even then, you’ll justify this administration.

they are left brain dead on this issue. They actually think he meant that Mexico would cut a fat check for the wall when from day one he laid out how that wasn’t the case

In a country of 330 million I’ll take 400,000 over +3.4 million.

Are you dumb or a fricking idiot? He doesn’t have to tell you shite because he has already proved that he can close the boarder because he has already closed the border.

Nope. That would do it.

You just know Donny cant pull it off and he has no intention of solving either. He flourishes as the victim.

The day that man shows leadership, Im in line. So far hes left his own supporters for dead.

Yes but those 400,000 were vetted and in the process of becoming legal!! Unlike the millions now that are not vetted. That’s the difference.

Nobody really has a problem with LEGAL immigration.. the problem that we all have now is the fact that the majority of the migrants here now are illegal and they have not been vetted

The current push is aided by our own government.

When government isnt importing them, the best way to end illegal immigration from the border is to help improve the lives of the average citizen there.

Put low level mfg in Mexico instead of SE Asia.

You act like Trump didn't have the best economy and immigration policies we've seen in decades. It was only 4 years ago. How can you not remember something that was 4 years ago?

No one believes you, either. We all know Trump could do everything you want, and you would still find a reason to bitch. You are broken, and complaining about Trump is the only way you can fill the void inside.
